So, for a time, I carried a premium JHP in the chamber, and the mag was loaded with good-quality round-noised FMJ.
I did that. Norma and Super Vel hollow points did not feed reliably in my USGI 1911 so I chambered one and loaded the magazine with hardball.
Still do. I did not want to go to the trouble to check out my P220 with JHPs, so it is loaded that way now.
I have shot enough 9BP over the years since M Ayoob mentioned it that I am comfortable with it after short trials in a new gun. But .45 ammo is a moving target. I could identify three variants of .45 Hydrashok by eye and read that there were five altogether.
